Ben Gordon traded to Charlotte

good trade

[chknwing]

serioulsy, we just got Ben Gordon and a 1st next year for corey maggette? Is this a dream?

Actually frees it up for Barnes or Gilchrist now, since Gordon's a shooter.

We have a competent owner now. Jordan won't pass on a clutch scoring machine with his drive & passion for a defensive specislist with the jump shot of a special olympic athlete.

Hes got 2 yr 26.6 million left on this deal, which scares you at first, but again, I dont see us being aggressive in FA until AFTER his contract runs out in 2 years.

Just a perfect trade.

This will be the roster under contract assuming we draft Barnes

- Kemba Walker

- Ben Gordon, Gerald Henderson, Matt Carroll

- Harrison Barnes, Reggie Williams

- Bismack Biyombo, Tyrus Thomas

- Byron Mullens, DeSagana Diop

We still have five roster spots left

According to source, the pick is lottery protected next year, top 8 in 2014, No. 1 protected in 2015 and unprotected in 2016.

Cho is the man. We also need to become portland fans next year.

definitely need a veteran PG & C for depth

Also, if Cho & Jordan have decided Barnes is the guy they better be weary of trading #2. Wouldn't be suprised to see CLE or WAS grab him.

Sign Chris Kaman and re-sign D.J. Augustin

I have also thought about that. If they trade the pick, I think that just means they are satisfied with Barnes or MKG and will take which ever one they can get.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

This season will at least be a little more interesting.

Then sign Nate Robinson, I love that little guy.

Nah, I'm suggesting that Barnes won't be there at #4 if the Bobcats trade back. Now if they pick Beal at #2 and then have Washington and Cleveland both calling for him, that's one thing, but Washington and Cleveland have both said they're fine with Barnes as a substitute for Beal.

What I'm saying, is if the Bobcats trade with Cleveland, and end up with #4, it'll go something like this:

#2 Beal (Cleveland)

#3 Barnes (Washington)

#4 Gilchrist or Robinson

Yucky scenario.

Robinson wouldn't be nearly as good on the Bobcats as people think unless they dramatically improve their wing scoring. Gordon is a good start.
